BRIGHT. BUT THIN.

party are more entertaining than serious.
Mossback members who had seemingly
been asleep for thousand years show, II
not actual life, at least desire TO be con-
sidered as breathing, In their reViVifled
Imagination they see the old National party
of freedom and promise gong to pieces,
while the men who had fought Its battles
and worn its laurels ready to drop into the
lean, hungry arms of the crew who, many
wears ago, even ceased dreaming OF office
Men never suspected of ambitions are
showing the grip of Jehu, the proficiency
of slrategists, to say nothing Of the elo-
uuence of Cicero. 1t would be no doubt a
very nice thing, from a Demo
cratic stand point, to carry the
greatest county In Kansas. not so much
probably for the Offices they would gobble
this fall but for the sake of having matters
all their own way next year and for years
to come. Healey's statistics and Majors
.platitudes are simply irresistably funny.
Sitting on the banks Of the Arkansaw and
bobbing for whales might be harmless
amusement, but the profits would not
warrant any one making business of 1t,
whatever the price Of bone and oil. Re-
publIcans cannot be caught with make
